| Notes About Existing
Stations... Bristol (PRR) - Bristol Historic Preservation Inc. renovated the station and there is a bagel shop inside. Buckingham Valley (NH&I) - The station at Buckingham is not an original Reading station. It was relocated from the former Valley Forge Scenic Railroad to serve the NH&I. The original RDG station was demolished in 1953. . Churchville (RDG) - Northampton Historical Society received a $5,000 state grant to fix up the station. The building is a tan, two-story wooden building with brown trim, fish-scale siding, and gingerbread detail. It served as the village post office for about six years in the early '70s. SEPTA owns the station and rents it as a private residence. Doylestown (NEPRR) - Used as office by the RR. Here is an old photo of Doylestown. This is the current station minus the cupola centered over the ticket office. This is probably the last remaining original North East Pennsylvania RR station as the line was absorbed into the Reading in 1879. All the other stations on this line were built after the NEPRR become part of the RDG. Fairless Junction (RDG) - Moved to Newtown from Fairless Junction. Lahaska (NH&I) - The station that currently exists at the original Lahaska site is much more recent and more resembles a fancy garden shed than the original station that had the witch's hat turret common to both the New Hope and Wycombe stations. The original 1891 station now rests about 4/10 mile south of its original location. There is now green siding and the "turret" had been replaced with a square room. It is the same kind of structure as the Wycombe and New Hope stations. . Lahaska (RDG) - The station that currently exists at the original Lahaska site is much more recent and more resembles a fancy garden shed than the original station that had the witch's hat turret common to both the New Hope and Wycombe stations. The original 1891 station now rests about 4/10 mile south of its original location. There is now green siding and the "turret" had been replaced with a square room. It is the same kind of structure as the Wycombe and New Hope stations. . Quakertown (RDG) - On National Register of Historic Places. Although the Quakertown station was designed in 1889, it was not actually built for another 13 years, making the architectural style older than the building itself. A crane (also on NRofHP) located on the South end of the property is believed to be one of two remaining built by Phoenix Steel in Phoenixville, PA. Rushland (RDG) - This is a converted boxcar that was used as a freight station. Southampton (P&R) - Here is an old photo. Wycombe (RDG) - The NH&I sold this depot to the County of Bucks around 2002-2003. Restoration was completed in summer 2009. |
